Acer palmatum 'Cascade Crimson'

Acer palmatum 'Cascade Crimson' is a show-stopping small tree that delivers drama in every season. Its very fine, filigree foliage creates a soft, flowing texture, perfectly matched by an elegant weeping habit that cascades gracefully from the crown. In spring, new leaves unfurl in a luminous red, gradually shifting to greener tones through summer before igniting into vivid crimson in autumn. Its graceful form looks especially striking beside a stream or pond where can be admired in reflection. Compact yet full of character, it suits small gardens, urban spaces, rock gardens and containers, where it works beautifully as a standout specimen with real presence. Ultimate height and spread: 2.5m (8.2ft).
